Saba Alizadeh born in Tehran is a virtuoso of the kamancheh (an Iranian bowed string instrument), also photographer and sound artist with a MFA at the Institute for the Arts in Los Angeles, California.
Alizadeh founded Noise Works in 2014, a platform and label that promotes experimental music and musical technologies among young artists.
Alizadeh belongs to the interesting Iranian scene with Siavash Amini, Porya Hatami, Tegh, among other artists.
The atmospheres created through the sound design generate an environment conducive to penetrate Iranian folklore roots with its languid and sliding kamancheh chords that look like the antechamber to a religious ceremony. And a way to transport yourself to that ancient culture of western Asia, remote from these places in America. Maybe that's the reason why the music sounds disturbing and mysterious. In any case this is a good opportunity to know part of the music that is made in that part of the world.
